Ariana Grande Reveals New Single '7 Rings' Release Date & Cover Art

On Thursday (January 10), the "thank u, next" singer announced on Instagram the release date of her next single, "7 Rings," captioning a photo of the track's cover art: "💍💍💍💍💍💍💍 1.18."

Ari's announcement came hours after she posted then deleted what appeared to be the lyrics to the highly-anticipated single on her Instagram Story Wednesday (January 9) night. While they weren't up for long, eagle-eyed fans were able to screenshot the post. Check out a few bars of the single's alleged lyrics below:

Buy myself all of me/ he he he, tea/they say ‘which one?’/ i say ‘I want all of ‘em’/ I see it I like it I want it i got it by now/ let me give you some tea/ 7 rings/ 7 rings/ i pop it/ i pierce it/ 7 rings 7 rings/ I call her, I say ‘Hello!’/ one: not right/two: not quite/ three: you’re on track/ four: do not go back!/ five: you’re almost there!/ six: it’s over there!/ seven: that’s right!/ 7 rings, 7 rings.

Back in December, Ari revealed that the song is about friendship, with each ring representing a close friend of hers. "well ............. ‘twas a pretty rough day in nyc. my friends took me to tiffany’s. we had too much champagne. i bought us all rings. 💍," she wrote on Twitter. "it was very insane and funny. & on the way back to the stu njomza was like ‘bitch, this gotta be a song lol’. so we wrote it that afternoon." The 25-year-old singer later tweeted who among her circle was lucky enough to get a ring. "me, vic, courtney, alexa, tayla, njomza, kaydence (and my mom and nonna so technically nine but they got theirs after song was done)," she wrote.
